Rachel Kimel and Deena DelZotto, co-founders of the Bowery Project, love working with plants. They started the non-profit organization because they were especially interested in growing food and educating the public about healthy eating.

Much like Jack Black’s School of Rock, Erik Laar’s Off Centre DJ School is devoted strictly to music (except they don’t have to hide it from the principal). Its mandate is simple: Have fun with records and electronics.
